Leica is continuing its bauhaus celebrations by launching another limited edition snapper in the form of the Leica CL 100 Jahre Bauhaus – Bauhaus Museum Dessau ($3,950). The appropriately suave camera has been designed to commemorate the opening of the new bauhaus museum in Dessau, and comprises a black Leica CL camera with matching Elmarit-TL 18mm f/2.8 ASPH lens and a black leather carrying strap. In keeping with bauhaus design traditions, the Lecia logo on the camera has been reduced and desaturated from red to pure black to give the device a minimalist look, while the bauhaus logo has also been discreetly emblazoned to maintain that stripped-back aesthetic. It’s a gorgeous device, made even more desirable by the fact that only 150 are being made. So, if you want to get your mitts on one, you’d better move fast.

I’m a freelance games and technology journalist currently mashing my keyboard in the name of fine institutions like Stuff, where you'll usually find me waxing lyrical about the latest mobile morsels. I've also been known to cook up some decidedly delicious reviews from time to time, and was once dubbed 'the games industry's answer to Nigella Lawson' by someone probably somewhere.
